Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
While the room was clean and the bed comfortable, the overall experience was disappointing. Evening snacks and wine included rotten fruit, warm wine, and cheap cheese. Breakfast was also poor: no fruit, no cheese, only boiled eggs and low-quality pastries. We waited more than 20 minutes for coffee and had to ask for everything, from utensils to cream cheese. The hotel clearly needs more staff at breakfast.

The rooms are badly in need of renovation. The doors were banged up and the wood on them was rotting a bit. The paint on the baseboards and in the bathroom was peeling pretty badly.

We ended up staying for a third night and no one told the hotel staff so we were in bed not fully closed in the housekeeping, opened our door and walked in.

The Alexander Inn is a handsome, charming, bijou hotel in the heart of Center City Philadelphia. The location and ambiance are just right. The best part of my stay, however, was the staff:, funny, warm and wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble fro them. They have a talent for making you feel welcome without being fawning or intrusive. I chose the Alexander Inn for its location and its charm; I’ll return, thanks to the wonderful staff.
